Biosciences Research
Main Aim
The main aim of this subtheme is to explore and document biodiversity resources; to advance fundamental understanding of complex biological processes; to generate knowledge that alleviates problems of climate change, food security, and health; and to generate bioscience knowledge and technologies that may contribute to the production of biofuels and industrial materials from novel biological sources.
Description
The Bioscience research sub-theme covers the study of organisms from molecular and cellular levels up to whole organisms, populations, and ecosystems. Research under this sub-theme focuses on systematics, diversity, physiology, ecology, and genetics of plants, animals, and microbes, alongside tools and technologies underpinning biological research.
